Chapter 122: Phantom Kid vs Whiplash

BONUS Chapter brought to you by KingSpy25i, enjoy!

“Are you Phantom Kid?”

Ivan looked at the white figure in front of him and remembered that Hammer had told him about this person not long ago. 

The thief who stole the first-generation Arc Reactor from Tony Stark, and then led Tony to challenge him in the newspaper! 

It was because of this guy that Hammer decided to give up the show and almost ruined his plan. 

It also attracted the troublesome guy, Batman, to destroy the feast he held to kill Tony. 

His failure today is all because of Phantom Kid! 

Thinking about it, Ivan’s eyes instantly turned red. 

“Why are you staring at this kid?” 

Mathison held a poker card in his hand, his face displayed his never-changing smile. 

“Snap!” 

However, what responded to him was a whip, and the dazzling electric light flowed from the whip, which appeared to be extremely shining. 

Mathison pushed Peter back, then dodged the whip aside. 

The high-intensity electric current brought a super high temperature. The whip hit the ground, and a huge force cracked the ground to pieces, and the high temperature scorched the stone bricks to black. 

After being pushed far by Mathison, Peter ran away very consciously, never looking back along the way. 

“Huh! Huh! Huh!” 

In the blink of an eye, Mathison threw three playing cards at Ivan. 

Ivan glanced at him contemptuously, disregarding the attack of playing cards, letting it attack him. 

Puff! 

“What!” 

These three playing cards cut Ivan’s armor straight, although they didn’t penetrate into Ivan’s body, but they were deeply embedded in the outer shell of the steel armor. 

This armor is thicker than the shell of the most advanced armored vehicle. It can protect the one who wears it from bullets, and even if rockets happen to hit it, Ivan will be shaken a bit at most. 

“With the full force of a flung poker card, I cannot cause effective damage to Ivan…?”

Mathison narrowed his eyes slightly. This move just now allowed him to test the defensive power of the whip armor. 

It can only penetrate the outer shell of the armor. The middle and inner part of it is difficult to penetrate, so it can’t threaten the power system of the armor. 

It is difficult for Kid’s conventional attacks to be effective on Ivan. 

“Why aren’t Iron Man and Batman coming yet? It’s impossible for them not to have noticed such a big sound just now.” 

Mathison had doubts in his mind. 

Meanwhile, the central square of the fair.

“Hey, did you hear that, there seemed to be something over there?” 

Tony asked Batman. 

“It’s Ivan Vanko, he’s here.” 

Batman calmly said. 

“Then what are we waiting for, let’s hurry up and end today’s affairs.” 

Iron Man is about to fly in the direction of Mathison. 

“Do not move!” 

Batman stopped him. 

Tony frowned and looked at Batman. 

“Phantom Kid is fighting Ivan.” 

“What, you said Phantom Kid, didn’t he leave?” 

Tony was puzzled. 

At this time, inside the bat helmet, what Bruce saw in his eyes was not the scene in front of him, but the bird’s-eye view of Phantom Kid fighting with Whiplash! 

That’s right, Alfred drove the Batwing in the sky above Phantom Kid, shooting Phantom Kid’s battle with clarity far beyond the ordinary police monitor lens. 

He intends to collect as much information as possible about Phantom Kid. 

When he learned that Coulson was observing Ivan’s movements on the radar screen of Hammer Industries, Bruce had anticipated two possibilities:

That is, plan A and plan B. 

Plan A can only be carried out if the information seen by Coulson is accurate. 

The so-called plan B, of course, is to be carried out when Ivan left false information. 

Batman believes that if Ivan had tinkered with the radar display, then he would definitely not take the initiative to look for death. 

With Batman and Iron Man present at the same time, Ivan’s odds of winning are very low. 

Then he will definitely find a way to check and balance them. 

Needless to think, to bring the greatest restraint effect on superheroes, is to take a hostage. 

So Bruce concluded that Ivan would definitely attack from the direction of the evacuation of the crowd. 

So, under the premise of not being sure whether the signal left by Ivan had been tinkered by him, Batman deliberately let Alfred patrol the sky above the fair, forcing Phantom Kid to choose to leave on foot. 

If Ivan made a surprise attack from here, it would happen that the two of them collided. 

With Batman’s knowledge of Phantom Kid, he shouldn’t watch innocent people being killed by Ivan. 

Especially when the enemy’s combat effectiveness is not as good as his. 

That’s right, Batman is very confident in Phantom Kid, and he believes that Ivan Vanko is Phantom Kid’s match.

It only depends on whether Kid is willing to use the ability he has been hiding – magic.

In this way, Alfred can record all kinds of data when the Phantom Kid uses magic. 

This is also a test at the same time. If Phantom Kid is willing to save people, it proves that he has a righteous heart, making Batman more determined to turn Kid into Robin. And vice versa, it could prove that Kid is not worthy to be Robin. 

Even if Kid is unwilling to save people, there is also the Batwing piloted by Alfred as insurance. 

His and Iron Man’s support will take less than a minute to arrive there. 

The Batwing can not only just provide firepower coverage, it also carries countless directional weapons. 

As long as there aren’t hundreds of people huddled together, it can make a precise hit. 

Of course, most of these weapons are narcotic bombs. 

This is the sinister side of Batman, no matter which direction Ivan comes from, he can’t escape the fate of being caught. 

In fact, Batman even managed to kill two birds with one stone. 

After dealing with Ivan for a long time, Iron Man and Batman still didn’t come, Mathison also didn’t know that he was being put under a test by Batman again. 

Ivan Vanko in front of him is obviously not an existence that can be repelled by words. 

From the beginning to the end, he had never spoken to him. He only kept flicking the whip. 

Ivan’s brain is like a rock. He ignored his arch-nemesis, Tony, and kept attacking Mathison. 

Even his original goal, Peter, was ignored! 

«What does this mean, does he think I am a soft persimmon?»

How can Mathison tolerate this? 

Mathison was guiding Ivan as far as possible from Peter’s position. 

Not only to protect Peter’s safety but also to prevent outsiders from seeing his next actions. 

“Is this the grave you picked for yourself, Phantom Kid?” 

Ivan grinned and said, this was the first word he said to Mathison. 

“Click!” 

Mathison broke off his fingers, and suddenly made a sound of joint friction. 

“I truly didn’t want to use this ability…”

There was a glimmer of coldness in Mathison’s eyes.
